Drink Concessions from Air Force game

[Kenneth]

Were the beer lines any better from AF game? Shorter lines? Didn't run out of anything?

 

[onealcd]

Yes, a lot better.

 

[BeavBuff47]

Slightly better lines, still terrible (on the east side). Very frustrating. From now on I will plan on not eating/drinking in the stadium until it improves.

 

[b3buffs]

Yes, it was actually the only thing you could find at a stand that did not have a line 100 people deep.

 

[Darth Snow]

apparently there are water bottle filling stations at certain gates. Who knew?

 

[SINKRATZ]

It was better but still not great. I’d attribute that some to an earlier kickoff and generally more mellow crowd for this one.

Also SIAP but the longest line I saw all day was for the Mel Tucker bobblehead giveaway - did anyone snag one? I didn’t have the patience to wait.

We got ours. We lined up just after the 3rd quarter before they handed them out. The line moved pretty fast because they had 4-5 people handing them out.

There are? Nice! I did email rick George and mention the lack of water availability and how bad the lines were for Nebraska and he said they were implementing new stuff for the Air Force game to alleviate the issues, maybe that was part of it.

1. Does anyone know where the water bottle fill stations are? I recall from years past a very temporary fountain hookup directly outside of the stadium at very south end.
2. I went to two beer stands just inside the gates at SE corner prominently displaying Stampede Beer signs. Both out of Stampede beer at end of first quarter and it wasn't even noon.

gates 4,6 and 12 on the east side.

That’s the only place I’ve ever seen water and they had nothing for Nebraska. I went over there on my way out and the employees said there were none.

Gate 6 has two water fountains and that is it. Unless they added water bottle fillers after the Nebraska game, that's all that was there. I know this because I went there like 4 times. Each time had a massive line.

 

[BuffTuba]

For AF, there were 2-3 water stations on the south and southwest of the stadium right outside the tunnel entrances.

 

[PAHIBuff]

I go to 1 or 2 games a year. I never buy food or beverages inside Folsom Field. Too disorganized and clueless. Eat and drink before you enter the venue. Life is too short.

 

[onealcd]

The beers lines were amazing.

What’s that mean? Was it easy to get a beer? Were beer lines long or short?

They were short. The Nebraska game was a nightmare.

There is also a station inside Balch in the SW corner near the women’s restroom.

You go 3+ hours without eating or drinking anything? I don’t think I’ve ever done that in my life. I drink water like it’s never coming back.

They had a few vendors with ice filled carts in field house just selling drinks. I also saw vendors up and down our aisle in sec 108 far more frequently than any game I remember. Lines were way shorter. Still lots of room for improvement but seems like there were some things changed from Nub game which was a total disaster on the logistics/vending side of things.
